Systems and methods for using image analysis in superior capsule reconstruction

A non-transitory computer-readable medium including contents that are configured to cause one or more processors to perform a method comprising:

• receiving imaging data contained in a video stream captured by an in-situ imaging device that traverses a treatment site in a shoulder area of the patient;
• processing image data from an-situ imaging device;
• analyzing the image data to (i) detect image data that depicts a set of anchor structures in the treatment site, (ii) determine an orientation attribute of each anchor structure of the set with respect to a reference;
• and (iii) determine a respective scale factor for one or more portions of image data that depict each anchor structure of the set, the respective scale factor of each portion of the image data reflecting a distortion in size of that portion of the image data with respect to a reference scale;
• determining geometric information for at least a portion of the treatment site where the set of anchor structures are located;
• and
• calculating at least a first measurement that represents a physical span between a pair of anchor structures of the set, based at least in part on the orientation attribute of each anchor structure of the set, the respective scale factor of each portion of the image data, and the determined geometric information.
